小学生かんじ：ゆびドリル（書き順判定対応漢字学習アプリ） 6.7.2

The latest kanji learning app features advanced capabilities for determining "stroke order" and "number of strokes." This app has achieved the top rank in the educational paid iPad app category on the App Store and boasts over 460,000 downloads in total, marking it as a bestseller in its category.

Designed for students, this comprehensive kanji learning app accurately utilizes textbook-style fonts to teach essential stroke methods. It covers all 1,006 characters that elementary school students learn over six years. Notably, this application contains no advertisements from third-party networks.

Drills are categorized by grade level, allowing users to practice writing kanji and reading them by tracing directly on the screen. The app evaluates the user's input, reinforcing the importance of correct stroke order. The drill interface only marks the input as correct if the user adheres to the appropriate stroke order for each kanji character.

Furthermore, practice screens provide feedback if there are mistakes in stroke order or number of strokes, ensuring a high-quality learning experience. The features available in the paid version "Yubi Drill" remain intact, allowing users to learn 20 characters per grade level while also providing metrics like score reports and identifying commonly confused kanji. Users can purchase the premium version through in-app purchases once they are satisfied with their experience.

Drill and Feature Overview:

• Writing Drill: Users practice kanji by writing on the screen. Correct assessments require adherence to both stroke order and number of strokes.
• Reading Drill: This drill focuses on writing out readings for kanji characters, featuring both on'yomi and kun'yomi problems.
• Practice: This function allows users to confirm stroke order and provides templates for repetitive practice. Users may save up to 10 examples of their handwriting per character and earn small rewards for practice milestones.
• Score Report: The app displays scores, attempts, dates, and accuracy rates for each drill engaged. It also highlights incorrectly answered kanji and readings.
• Challenge Mode: Each drill includes a mode that presents a random selection of 20 questions aimed at reinforcing memory retention.

Kanji Combinations:

• Level 1: This drill includes difficult combinations of kanji learned in grades 1-4.
• Level 2: Aimed at students in grades 4-6, this mode incorporates complex kanji combinations.

The app prioritizes displaying mistakes related to "number of strokes" when both stroke order and number of strokes are incorrect. It recognizes discrepancies between generated examples and user input, though it does not assess nuanced elements like 'hane' or 'tome'. Additionally, it does not evaluate new hiragana stroke orders.

The "Yubi Drill: 1st Year Kanji" has secured a first-place ranking in the educational paid iPad app category on the App Store, with other grade versions also ranking within the top ten. This demonstrates its solid performance as a reliable educational tool.

*Each feature allows for practice of 20 characters per grade level, with up to five drills available for each category. This software employs PUX Corporation's handwriting recognition engine "Raku Hira," a registered trademark of Panasonic Corporation.
